This step requires that your application already exists in Datadog. For more information on the available configuration, see the [`datadog-ci upload-application` documentation](https://docs.datadoghq.com/continuous_testing/cicd_integrations/configuration/?tab=npm#upload-application-command). ## Setup{% #setup %} This step is not available on the official Bitrise Step Library. To get started: 1. Add the following git URL to your workflow. See the [official Bitrise documentation](https://devcenter.bitrise.io/en/steps-and-workflows/introduction-to-steps/adding-steps-to-a-workflow.html#adding-steps-from-alternative-sources) on how to do that though the Bitrise app. You can also configure it locally by referencing the git URL in your `bitrise.yml` file. ```yml - git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-upload-application.git@v2.7.0: ``` Add your API and application keys to your [secrets in Bitrise](https://devcenter.bitrise.io/en/builds/secrets.html#setting-a-secret).[Configure your step inputs](https://devcenter.bitrise.io/en/steps-and-workflows/introduction-to-steps/step-inputs.html). You can also configure them in your `bitrise.yml` file. The only required inputs are the two secrets you configured earlier. For a comprehensive list of inputs, see the Inputs section. When running the step locally with the Bitrise CLI, the secrets should be stored in a `.bitrise.secrets.yml` file. See [Managing secrets locally](https://devcenter.bitrise.io/en/bitrise-cli/managing-secrets-locally.html). ## Usage{% #usage %} ### Example task using a global configuration override with `configPath`{% #example-task-using-a-global-configuration-override-with-configpath %} This task overrides the path to the global `datadog-ci.config.json` file. ```yml - git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-upload-application.git@v2.7.0: inputs: - api_key: - app_key: - config_path: './synthetics-config.json' ``` ### Example including all possible configurations{% #example-including-all-possible-configurations %} For reference, this is an example of a complete configuration: ```yml - git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-upload-application.git@v2.7.0: inputs: - api_key: - app_key: - config_path: './global.config.json' - datadog_site: 'datadoghq.com' - latest: true - mobile_application_id: '123-123-123' - mobile_application_version_file_path: 'path/to/application.apk' - version_name: 'example 1.0' ``` ## Inputs{% #inputs %} For more information on the available configuration, see the [`datadog-ci upload-application` documentation](https://docs.datadoghq.com/continuous_testing/cicd_integrations/configuration/?tab=npm#upload-application-command). | Name | Description | | -------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `api_key` | (**Required**) Your Datadog API key.
